Penangites convey to a greater extent than choices for Ramen at in 1 lawsuit alongside the opening of Kidoya Ramen at Fettes 10, a novel row of store houses correct contrary to Prima Tanjung. The Ramen specialist is said to convey originated from Tokyo, noodles are freshly made hither inwards Penang. It does non convey a big carte du jour for obvious reasons, only a page or ii for lunch, mainly featuring their Ramen creations too every bit only about Rice dishes. There volition travel slightly to a greater extent than choices for dinner but I would non worry close that (hey, its a Ramen eatery right?). Prices are pretty reasonable as well as competitive, specially alongside the value overstep upward for lunch. The identify was build clean on our visit, brightly-lit as well as ample seating spaces. Parking could travel a occupation but yous may convey your machine parked at Prima Tanjung as well as walk over (if yous don't mind). Worth dropping past times if yous are inwards the vicinity.
One of their signature Ramens- Tonkotsu Ramen (Rm 19) comes inwards a hearty portion; completed alongside a thick acre of Japanese Chashu as well as a halved braised Egg. The home-made Noodles were al-dente but nosotros idea the broth could travel thicker as well as richer. The broth was reasonably seasoned but the braised Egg was veering towards the salty side. We did ponder why Kidoya Ramen serves a fully cooked braised Egg instead of the one-half boiled version (Ajitsuke Tamago). The eatery justified that they are non able to source Eggs straight from Japan. As far every bit security is concerned, the administration insists to serve their Eggs fully cooked. Well... at to the lowest degree they did non produce this (overcooking the eggs) intentionally.
For a change, nosotros decided to endeavor their Tsukemen (Rm 21) every bit well. Unlike Ramen, Tsukemen is ofttimes served mutual coldness alongside a bowl of pipe hot dense-broth. However, I would personally prefer the noodles to travel served chilled instead of room temperature, I idea that would travel slightly to a greater extent than authentic. The noodles were quite bouncy, different the rumored slouchy version experienced past times some; mine came inwards almost perfect. While I am perfectly okay alongside the noodles, I did experience that they involve to fine-tune their broth. It lacked of a "X" component that could hand it a kick; in all probability non every bit concentrated every bit I would convey hoped. The entire dish, however, turned out to travel quite skillful alongside the magical mix of their home-made Chili flakes. Not quite spicy but it adds only about other layer of dimension to the monotonous flavor.
Only available for lunch, diners may opt to overstep upward Rm iii for a bowl of Chashu Fried Rice. It comes inwards a generous portion, a bowl of this was to a greater extent than than sufficient for a repast itself. It was well-executed alongside the essential "wok-hei" as well as buttery aroma. Traces of Dried Scallops, Eggs as well as Japanese Chashu were seen.
